Mariel Padilla fires back at 'yellow' blogger who called Robin a passenger junket

Pinoy Ako Blog, a Filipino based 'yellow' blog that is consistently criticizing the current administration, posted an article about the trip of President Duterte in Russia together with several officials and other prominent personalities.

The blog accused that 300 passengers were included in the junket and were paid by taxpayers. The blog named Robin Padilla, Phillip Salvador, Sandra Cam, Mocha Uson as part of the supposed extravagant trip.

"Imbes unahin ang kapakanan ni Juan, inuna pa ang kapakanan ni Robin Padilla, Phillip Salvador, Sandra Cam, Mocha Uson at kung sino2x pang tsuwariwariwap sa junket na yun," anonymous writer of Pinoy Ako Blog stated.

"Habang kulang sa pagkain ang mga tao sa Marawi…Habang nagdadalamhati ang mga pamilya na nawalan ng hanapbuhay…Habang nakikipag laban ang ating mga kasundaluhan.. 300 katao ang nakasama pala dun sa travel junket sa Russia," the blog added.

Mariel Padilla, wife of Robin Padilla, reacted to the article and explained that her husband paid for the airfare and hotel and did not come from people's tax.

"FYI Robin Padilla paid for his airfare and hotel," she stated on her Facebook account.

"He did not accept a position in the government ticket pa kaya at pa hotel tatanggap siya??," she added.

Mariel then suggested that the anonymous yellow blogger should research before making a conclusion. "Stupid "tsuwariwap" blogger... Know your facts!," she said.
